<p>The puzzle device has a shaft member and a number of adjacent like wheels (4) rotatably mounted onto the shaft member (2). A number of tiles (16) are distributed over peripheral surfaces of the wheels and slideably mounted on them for lateral sliding from one of the wheels to an adjacent wheel provided that the adjacent wheel has a space adapted to slideably receive the tile and that the tile is properly aligned with the space. The tiles bear indicia determining desired final puzzle positions over the cylindrical puzzle surface defined by the peripheral surfaces of the wheels. Pin and slot arrangements interconnect the wheels for communicating rotation from one of the wheels to all immediately adjacent wheels whenever the concerned wheel is rotated past a specific rotation angle.</p>
